Do the math and your home work, freight, taxes, duty, values, laws so on. Not worth bringing if you get less in aus though would think you should make more but I’m not sure what values are at present in both countries post covid. By the way, great first post on the forum, though we tend to put which state the vehicle resides in the thread title for a 4 Sale. In your case at present it would read UK, you ain’t gonna get much interest here in aus, mate.

Yep, that’s what I said about the work I’d done on my F1 when the dog was here the other week, keep it stock and you’ll have less troubles. Still disappointed he didn’t offer me $15K like I hinted in the other thread, oh well at least this one’s worth all its money. Good buy, now you gotta come over again to show it off.

easy way to do this @Ezra Buy a GT 220 which is P plate legal and has the F4R engine already in it, then just swap out the ecu and keys off a 250 or 265 and it'll go as fast as a RS but it wont handle or stop as a RS, and insurance or cops wouldn't know or could tell its been modified as you've used original Renault parts. If you went the whole hog and changed the suspension, brakes, gearbox, wider stance, front guards so on and put a whole RS front end on it even though they are original parts that suit that make and model, people may notice

You gain access to remove fuel flap under the wheel arch liner and it all makes more sense when you look up in there. The solenoid itself is attached and can be seen when you remove the boot side wall liner but you get a better understanding of it all if you remove the fuel flap from above the wheel liner.

Just get a cover note for insurance and after the two weeks don’t pay it unless you need to make a claim. My understanding is that you can’t get any remaining rego, firstly you’ll need to register in his name and pay stamp duty, but as they aren’t from Vic they can’t register it. Let seller refund plates, then for movement just get a unregistered vehicle permit, roughly $55 1 week, $66 two weeks, 3, $77 and max of 4 weeks for $88. I think WA is the odd state with these laws, so check, but other states say that permit is to be obtained from state that journey starts. So in your case pay $55 to move it around Vic for a week without reg and then one permit in WA Easiest option is to buy unreg, get unreg permit online for a week, fly to Melb and drive home within a week while on a cover note.

Best way to learn manual I found with my two boys when they were 17 was to take them on Reefton runs. By the forth trip I wouldn’t even have to tell them when to brake or what gear to be in. Don’t worry about the cosmetics of your 172 and don’t waste your money on it for two years in case you bin it like most red P plate males, just get it sorted mechanically, belts, brakes, rotors and quality tyres.

Its been two months since his first and only two posts and if we don't see pic's it didn't happen, but then again perhaps it didn't which is why he hasn't posted again.

Parts of France is Ken who is at Alpine Affaire

Are they a F4RM874 ?

Typically it’s the top right engine mount and dogbone mount at the bottom middle of engine. Both easy to do at home in the garage. I’ve been told non genuine top mount don’t last as long, can’t comment on the after market special stuff from the UK so I’d get the Renault ones. My tip would be not to pay to have them changed when it’s really quite easy to do at home.

While my kids were in primary school during the summer all they wanted was for me to pick them up in my 1960 Renault Floride convertible that had no seat belts in the back, otherwise it was my series of 172’s and 182’s I’ve had over the years. Tell the Mrs, no, I’m keeping the Clio, end of conversation.

If she’s doing that many K’s the resale value will be buggered on a low k’ed car when she adds 150,000 to 200,000 K’s in the next five years. So the black one at $7K less would seem a good option considering it may still be worth around $10K in five years at 350,000km + and any other car she gets now that’s around 300,000 in five years time would be about the same price anyway

Firstly, are you insured ? Who has deemed it a write off, you ? Stat write offs are selling as low as $5/6K. But the auctions can be hit and miss and prices are all over the place. If you are not making an insurance claim and they haven’t been notified for them to deem it damaged and put it on the WOVR it’s value is slightly higher as it won’t be listed as a stat or repairable write-off when one does a PPSR on the vehicle. If this is the case, why not fix it. For a $40K vehicle you may only get back $5K to $10K. If you fix it, in theory the vehicle is still worth $40K but it will depend on what it will cost you to return it back as a running car. As long as it’s less than $30K, which you would of lost anyway, could be an option. Careful with your neck, as I’m suffering from whip lash injuries at present from March. Constant headaches, treatment gives me headaches, normal activities aggravate it and give me headaches and it’ll be about a year until it gets back to normal.
